<span>Jerry is 8 years younger than Patricia, so:
(1): Jerry = Patricia - 8
Six years ago, Patricia was 3 times as old as Jerry was then, so:
(2): (Patricia - 6) = (Jerry - 6)*3
Putting equation 1 in to equation 2
(Patricia - 6) = (Patricia - 8 - 6)*3
Patricia - 6 = 3Patricia - 42
36 = 2Patricia
Patricia = 18
And so Jerry = 10</span>
Answer:
a candy is $4
you have a $20 bill
1 candy = 4
2 candies = 8
3 candies = 12
4 candies = 16
5 candies = 20
you can buy 5 candies for $20.
Ella spent $13.5 dollars on rides. So she got in 27 rides.
{Solution: subtract 17.50 - 4= 13.5...... and then divide 13.5/.50=27}
Answer: x= 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
x−5(x−1)=2x−(2x−3)
x−5(x−1)=2x+−1(2x−3)(Distribute the Negative Sign)
x−5(x−1)=2x+−1(2x)+(−1)(−3)
x−5(x−1)=2x+−2x+3
x+(−5)(x)+(−5)(−1)=2x+−2x+3(Distribute)
x+−5x+5=2x+−2x+3
(x+−5x)+(5)=(2x+−2x)+(3)(Combine Like Terms)
−4x+5=3
−4x+5=3
Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides.
−4x+5−5=3−5
−4x=−2
Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.
−4x
/−4
=
−2
/−4
x = 1/2
Using translation concepts, the transformations are given as follows:
a) The function is horizontally compressed by a factor of 3 and shifted down one unit.
b) The function is shifted right 3 units and vertically stretched by a factor of 2.
<h3>What is a translation?</h3>
A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.
Item a:
The transformations are:
- x -> 3x, hence the function is horizontally compressed by a factor of 3.
- y -> y - 1, hence the function is shifted down one unit.
Item b:
The transformations are:
- x -> x - 3, hence the function is shifted right 3 units.
- y -> 2y, hence the function is vertically stretched by a factor of 2.
